i845G here on IBM ThinkCentre A30 Celeron 2.0 gHz.
VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset
Integrated Graphics Device (rev 01)
Running Maverick Alpha 2:
Linux version 2.6.35-13-generic (bui...@palmer) (gcc version 4.4.5 20100723
(prerelease) (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-7ubuntu3) ) #18-Ubuntu SMP Sat Jul 31

>From Ubuntu Maverick forum thread Call for Testing: i8xx legacy driver:
Install the xserver-xorg-video-intel and libdrm packages:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:raof/aubergine
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
Boots and runs with default Grub line, just "quiet", with KMS on.
I can switch to command line with Ctrl-Alt-F1, verify the tiny print KMS, log
on, exit, then do Ctrl-Alt-F7 to switch back to gdm O.K.
No xorg.conf so it is running with default intel driver I assume the new one?
I'm not good at reading Xorg.0.log so it is attached.
It boots to blank screen with nomodeset
It boots to blank screen with i915.modeset=0
It boots just fine without specifying mode and without xorg.conf.
Only way I've been able to run previously is with i915.modeset=0 and
xorg.conf specifying driver vesa, which works just fine.
Thanks, it's running for the moment, but there's always the next dread
Alpha update...
